Re: Extruder Path To Avoid Crossing Infil Or Body Of Part

In version 4. It says: Avoid crossing outline for travel movements This says it's trying to avoid traveling across the part outline. I'm not really caring about the outline, I'm worried about the interior surface. In version 5 It says - Modify Travel Movement to AVOID open spaces. With that logic, i...

STL Orientation on Import

Hi, I'm really stuck here, and I'm sure this is something simple. I'm using Fusion 360. I have my preferences set to Z Up. But when I export the STL files, and then import them into S3D, I have to flip them -90 degrees in the X-Axis. Normally not a problem, but I'm trying to do a dual head print, an...

Dual Head Zelda Guardian Print Alignment Issues

Hi, I'm using the latest S3D with a pretty well dialed in Microcenter Powerspec, which is a FlashForge Creator Pro clone, with dual heads. I'm trying to do a dual head print of the Zelda Guardian from Thingy: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2391826 I'm using the base_plain_thru, base_details_thru_...

Re: More settings for Top Layer only for better top finish

Yup, something like that is exactly what I'm looking for too.

In addition to being able to have more than 45/-45 and concentric for top and bottom layers

Re: More settings for Top Layer only for better top finish

Oh for sure, that's why I commented on this. The best approach is to have settings for the top and bottom layers. I also made a request, where the infill layers directly under a surface can be automatically increased. I have a lot of little surfaces strewn about. And unless I make the infill pretty ...

Re: More settings for Top Layer only for better top finish

Darrell, You can turn off the top and bottom layers in each process to get rid of that. For example with 3 processes Process 1, set to start printing as 0, and go to 10mm, you set the bottom layers to some number 1 or greater but you set the top layer to 0 Process 2, set to start printing as 10mm, a...

Automatically Increase Infill percent below a top layer

Hi, I am making some fairly complex parts for some projects (currently modifying a laser printer to print onto a PCB blank). So it has surfaces at various heights, and pockets for springs and such. I like your triangle infill, but I really need to bump up the percentage, when I have a small cylinder...

Re: More settings for Top Layer only for better top finish

Chiming in here, the same as in the other post. After using S3D for years, I now need to jump in on this bandwagon. It seems crazy that you can set all kinds of angles for the infill, and have no options the top or skin layers. I'm sure this is probably harder to implement than we think, otherwise i...

Re: Top layer Infill Angle

After using S3D for years, I now need to jump in on this bandwagon. It seems crazy that you can set all kinds of angles for the infill, and have no options the top or skin layers. I'm sure this is probably harder to implement than we think, otherwise it would already be there. However, I am printing...
